This pilot study investigated associations between genetic polymorphisms in transporter genes (SLC19A1, ABCC2, ABCB1, ABCC1, ABCC3, ABCG2) and clinical response to methotrexate (MTX) in 100 Chinese rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. Multiple SNPs showed significant associations with MTX response: SLC19A1 rs12659 and rs3788200 major alleles were associated with EULAR good/moderate response (RR=1.42-1.45, p=0.03-0.04); ABCC2 rs3740066 major allele was associated with DAS28-ESR low disease activity (RR=0.67, p=0.02). Haplotype analysis identified significant associations of SLC19A1 and ABCC2 haplotypes with clinical response outcomes.
About ABCC3
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the superfamily of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. ABC proteins transport various molecules across extra- and intra-cellular membranes. ABC genes are divided into seven distinct subfamilies (ABC1, MDR/TAP, MRP, ALD, OABP, GCN20, White). This protein is a member of the MRP subfamily which is involved in multi-drug resistance. The specific function of this protein has not yet been determined; however, this protein may play a role in the transport of biliary and intestinal excretion of organic anions. Alternatively spliced variants which encode different protein isoforms have been described; however, not all variants have been fully characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
